-Jose Angel Musquiz
Definitely worth more than 5 stars! This school is great. If your thinking about becoming a barber this should be your first stop when checking out schools. Just completed my 1500 hours for class A barber, Mr. Diaz has helped tremendously molding all of us into the greatest barbers we can be.
-Juan Garza
I want to thank Tonsore, Ingram Barber College, and my instructor Mr. Diaz. I went into the program with some past knowledge as a cosmetologist, but Mr. Diaz helped me sharpen and perfect them! I am now on my way to become a barber through the crossover program offered at Tonsore! Thank you Mr. Diaz!!! I couldn’t of done it without you!!
